This first photo shows a horse that can almost fly. A-t-il des ailes ? S'appelle-t-il Pégase ?
And this second photo shows how far his hooves are off the ground.
Did you know that a stuntman (in the movies) is called un cascadeur? And the stunts are called cascades.
LOVE the horse photos! (And re the earlier discussions about who your readers are and where, and how many times people access your site, I visit both yours and Walt's, often more than once a day) - Christine de la Nouvelle-Zelande
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment, Pollyanna_H.
DeleteIn photos 3, 4, 5, the man must have great confidence in his horses and how well they were trained.
ReplyDeleteI guess the two horses are strapped together. And maybe the man has velcro on the soles of his shoes.
DeleteNow, I'm wondering if these horses are hongres or étalons? Probably hongres for the most part, because étalons are much more difficult to train.
ReplyDeleteI should have added, and be docile.
DeleteMy guess is that they're geldings, or mares, Stallions are not only more difficult to train but all that excess testosterone can make them dangerous.
DeleteNo, I did not know that those were the words for stunts and stuntman!
ReplyDeleteI’m not the least bit tired of seeing horse photos.
ReplyDeletePercherons in la Peche which used to be Called la Perche I think. Many of these beautiful draft horses were killed in WWI.
ReplyDeleteDid you drive to Orlando? I'm glad you had a good time. At this point, for us, the U.S. and places like DisneyWorld seem like a dream.
DeleteWe flew to Orlando. Masked all the way on a full Southwest flight. At Disney everyone's temperature was checked before entering. "Cast members" made sure everyone kept their masks on. It was the stuff of a long bad, but still magical dream ;-) L, C, and I have had 2 Moderna. SIL has had first Pfizer vaccine.
